Can you define a fish? Well, apparently the biologists on the Cal appellate court only needed 35 pages to determine that a bumblebee is a fish. You know that emanations and penumbras thing that attorneys learn about in high end law schools. Geezus.
A BUMBLEBEE NEEDS FINS LIKE A FISH NEEDS A… An appellate court in California has held that bumblebees are fish:
The issue presented here is whether the bumble bee, a terrestrial invertebrate, falls within the definition of fish, as that term is used in the definitions of endangered species in section 2062, threatened species in section 2067, and candidate species (i.e., species being considered for listing as endangered or threatened species) in section 2068 of the Act.
It takes 35 pages of tortured logic in an opinion that reads like a parody, but the court concludes that bumblebees indeed are fish within the meaning of California’s environmental laws. I take it that all other insects, by the court’s logic, are also fish.
I cite this decision as a warning to those who repose faith in our courts to check the excesses of the political branches. See also: Michael Sussman.
Not attending class, not turning in homework, disruption in class all things that need to be rewarded because acting white is the worst thing an aspiring black doctor or astronaut can do. Just vote for the dementia patient for your official, "I'm Black" ribbon and a hug and your A.

The duplicity continues. Don't be racist against blacks, they implore. But - at the exact same time - when they do fuck up, make excuses for them, blame inequities, and make sure to use the "because that's just how blacks are" causation explanation.
But don't be racist, you privileged mother-fuckers! And never forget, blacks cannot be racist.
This shit helps nobody while making the plight of humanity evermore difficult.

According to the dazzler and the people he votes for January 6 was worse than Pearl Harbor. The riot outside the White House, however, was for a good cause, the removal of the duly elected President from office. Same with the PIPS campaign in conjunction with the DOJ and US intelligence agencies to dispose of Trump. Again, all for a good cause so nothing to see.
Old Navy and its parent company Gap Inc. took a massive loss after Old Navy went all-in on the so-called “body positivity” movement, offering extremely large and small clothing items.
Instead of cashing in on the feminist movement and earning praise for its apparent progressivism, Old Navy was left with clothing in only the extremely large and small sizes — and unhappy customers. A lot of unhappy customers.
“Analysts expect the company to report net sales of $3.44 billion, down from the $3.99 billion it reported in the same period last year,” a report from The Wall Street Journal said of a Gap Inc. report, which “showed the company’s latest quarterly results on May 26.”
The bad numbers have already triggered a “management shake-up,” the report noted.
“Old Navy set out to make clothes shopping more inclusive for women of all body types,” the Journal said. “It ended up with too many extra-small and extra-large items and too few of the rest, a mismatch that frustrated customers and contributed to falling sales and a management shake-up.”
Back in August, Old Navy started offering their clothing in sizes 0 to 30, and XS to 4X. The petite and plus-size departments were gone, instead incorporated with the rest of the clothing, apparently to be more “inclusive.”
“This is the largest integrated launch in the brand’s history and an important growth driver for the business for years to come,” Gap Chief Executive Sonia Syngaltold championed the move at the time.
“Soon after, however, Old Navy’s sales started to nosedive,” the Journal reported. “Last month, Nancy Green, the chain’s president and chief executive, stepped down after less than two years running the brand. Gap warned that sales for the spring quarter would fall short of expectations in part due to troubles at Old Navy.”
Being obese is not aspirational.
People don't buy shit to look like shit. They buy shit to make themselves feel/look better.
Fucking idiots in corporate marketing and C-suites.
Victoria Secret also decided that it needed to "upgrade" its market image and target environment. New Coke and Pepsi Clear marketing directors nod in agreement.
Coke was getting killed by Pepsi before their marketing ploy of new Coke. As soon as they brought back old Coke, they catapulted past Pepsi and have stayed there for almost 40 years now.

It was estimated that Coke got 250,000,000 in free advertising due to it being on every news and talk show for months.

The American Legion BB team in Eugene was the Pepsi Challengers. Pepsi dominated the market. I’ve always been a Coke guy.
